Marine Science Sunday:

Saving Species: Endangered Marine Mammals

Join us on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month for Marine Science Sunday - a FREE engaging ocean-inspired classroom series from our education experts.

This month we celebrate the endangered and threatened marine mammals found along the California coast and Pacific Ocean, including the massive blue whale, Steller sea lions, fur seals, and the rarest seal in the United States, the Hawaiian monk seal. Docent-led tours will take you around the hospital showcasing some of the patients we are caring for and how our veterinarians are getting them better. Classroom presentations will feature interactive activities and multimedia showcasing the amazing adaptations and diversity amongst some of the rarest marine mammals and the efforts of the Center to keep them alive.

Come learn about the efforts of The Marine Mammal to save endangered and threatened marine mammals. Learn how the Center is building a hospital in Hawaii to save the most endangered seal in the US, cut down on ship strikes to the World's largest animal, and our current fur seal patients. A great complement to the docent-led tour!
